Has memantine actually helped you?

Original post in this thread

Do you take memantine, and for what do you take it? Has it helped you?

I'm having a hard time titrating upwards from 10mg without getting brain fog and the feeling of detachment. Is 10mg sufficient to counter stimulant tolerance or do I have to go all the way up to 30mg?

Thanks.

I haven't had any negative interactions with memantine and nicotine, been taking nicotine every day whilst i've been on memantine for a while now. I might stop taking nicotine for a week or so to see what happens when I start it up again but i've not noticed anything bad. I hope I don't as I really like memantine and I also really like nicotine, would not want to give nicotine up particularly. Of course everyone is different and I seem to have strange reactions to a lot of things so who knows.

Keep in mind this is just my reaction to it. I have gotten a few messages from people saying they are fine with Memantine and Nicotine as well. I also have not tried to isolate the interaction any further, since the brain fog and mood issues have me messed up for days.

E-cigarettes less addictive than cigarettes

Replying to relbatnrut · You joke, but nicotine is so much more effective as a nootropic with MAOIs (at least for me).

Ohh I know. It just also makes it more addictive.
